We’re really happy you found your way to Embedded by Quokka – whether it was through a colleague, a project you’ve worked on, or simply your curiosity about where HIL development is heading next.

At Quokka, we believe that great technology starts with great people. People who are curious. People who care. People who enjoy solving complex challenges together – and who like working close to the customer to make real impact.

Now we’re looking for a HIL Engineer to join our team and help shape the future of test environments for our clients.

You like being the person who connects the dots — between requirements, architecture, test needs, and real‑world system behavior.

We think you’ll thrive if you have experience with:

Designing or developing HIL systems (dSPACE, Vector, NI, or similar)

Hardware integration, signal interfaces, I/O, and test rigs

Test automation or scripting (Python, CAPL, or similar)

Reading and understanding embedded software behavior

Debugging, troubleshooting, and system‑level thinking

Communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART

Bonus points for experience with:

Customer‑facing roles or technical coordination

Automotive or safety‑critical systems
